Abstract
Integrated circuits with memory cells and methods of programming the memory cells are provided. In an exemplary embodiment, a method of programming a memory cell includes determining a memory cell temperature for a memory cell within an integrated circuit. A pulse number is determined, where the pulse number is the number of electrical pulses at a set voltage required to program the memory cell at the memory cell temperature. The memory cell is programmed with a write operation, where the write operation includes the pulse number of electrical pulses.
